80s Flashback Dance Photo Booth

Bell High Photo — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 06:50:20 +0000

On Friday, February 16, 2010, Bell High School Photography students constructed an outdoor photography studio in an effort to raise money for Haiti. Before entering the 80′s Flashback dance in the east gym, students had the opportunity to have their pictures taken for a small fee. After hundreds of photographs and countless poses for the camera, the students were happy to know that all of the money raised from the booth and dance sales went towards the Haitian Relief Fund.

The photo booth was the brainchild of 11th grade Photography student Reynaldo Aguilar.

Street Photography

Bell High Photo — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 15:00:10 +0000

Street photography is a form of documentary photography where subjects are featured in public places under candid situations. The photographer attempts to capture the feeling of a place, creating a strong image without sacrificing truth or authenticity. While studying the works of photographers such as Stephen Shore, William Eggleston, Ernest Benecke, Robert Frank, and Danny Lyon, Bell High photography students took to the streets and learned to see their community in an entirely different light.
